CONNECT RIATARAKE TO YOUR TRACTOR’S 3
POINT HOOKUP
Now you are ready to connect your RiataRake to the
tractor. Lower link pins are provided and are pinned in
place on your unit. Top links can vary depending on your
tractor model and size—we do not provide a top link pin.
Make sure you set the inside leveling comb adjustment
handle to the down, or locked position before you lift the
rake from the pallet.
If you are using a fork lift, attach a nylon strap to the
spine around the welded plate that connect the two
sides of the spine. This position should give a balanced
position for lifting the RiataRake.
Warning: Do not lift RiataRake with a forklift with the
forks under the frame. It is prone to slip off the forks due
the slick surfaces and standard length of the forks may
make this a drop hazard.
The Top Link Mast should be vertical, 90 degrees to the
arena footing. This ensures that the tine bar is level
front to back. The correct setup can be seen in gure 1
below.
